In order to deal with the shortage (短缺) of women’s restrooms in public places, unisex (不分性別的) public toilets have been introduced into many cities. Will you feel comfortable using such a public toilet? You’re welcome to share your ideas.

Cathy (China)

Toilets should be separated into men’s and women’s. As a woman, I don’t want to share the same toilet with men which will make me feel embarrassed. I don’t think that making all the toilets unisex can solve this problem.

Mark (Australia)

I think increasing the number of women’s toilets is the best choice. I always feel sorry for the ladies as there never seems to be enough toilets and they always have to wait in line.

Roger (the US)

In the United States, there are lots of public unisex toilets. The toilet here is a one-room toilet, so each person can be alone with a locked door. When a woman leaves, a man can go in. In my opinion, it is silly and very ________ for men and women (and kids) to mix together in the same room!

Nick (the UK)

There have been unisex toilets all over London for years. This just isn’t a big deal. If the doors offer enough safety and protection, I don’t have a problem with it in most situations. In France unisex toilets are also common, and they have been around for years.

Dear Sun’s readers,

Nice to meet you. I’m Mike. I work as a writer for SUN. I find that many teenagers have nobody to tell when they have problems. So I start this column “JUST ASK”. If you meet any problem in your life, just write to me and ask for help here. I hope I can help you out.

Mike

Dear Mike,

My problem is that I can’t get on well with my parents. They always ask me to take part in different kinds of after-school classes. I am stressed out. I hope I can do what I am really interested in. In order not to argue with them, I refused to communicate with them before. So, in fact, they don’t know my opinion. Yesterday, when they talked about the after-school class with me again, suddenly I was not in control of my emotion and had a big fight with them. Now, I feel very sad and upset, because I don’t really want to argue with them and I love them a lot. What should I do now? Please give me some advice. Thanks a lot.

Selina
